A letter from Rome, Feb. 26th„ to the
Netvf,York Herald. says "The ball at the
Quirinal, which had been postponed on.
azimut of the death of the Princess or
Saxony, came off last night and WIWI a.
magnificent mammas. The palace was
superbly deoorated and flooded with light. .
Two thousand guests responded tit. the
invitation issued by the prefect of the
palace and the lady in waiting in the names •
of the King and Queen. The guests vent
away delighted with the kindly warmth and,
hospitality . of their-- reception. Carriages
began to roll- into the Quirinal court-
yard as early as 9.30. At 10 precisely the
stirring strains of the 64 Itoyal March "were
_begird in the ball -room, heralding the arrival
of King Humbert, queen Margaret and the
nobles- and **diet; of the royal household."
Tne Queen, as usual, looked radiant as elle

three belles of the Italian Court, glided
.from room to zoom, chatting unaffectedly
with the guests and singling out - the most,

than the Queen, wore a - white dress

;The introduction of the modern,..slang -
Word " dandy " as applied, half in admira-
tion and half in derision,- th a fop, dates -
from 1816. John Bee (" Slang Dictionary,"
1823) says that Lord Petersham was the
founder of the sect, and gives the pawned
-
ties is "French gait, lisping, wrinkled fore-
heads, killing King's English, wearing 1132- •
mem plaited pantaloons, coat out away,.
small 'waistcoat, ora,vitt and. chitterlings
immense, hat sniall, hair frizzled and pro.
truding." There is a good picture of the
Fashionable Fop in the Busy Body for.
March, 1816, but - the word dandy is
not used. Pierce Egan, in his edition of
Groin, 1823, says the dandy, in 1829, was a
fashionable tiondescrirti--nied who wore
stays to give theta a, fine shape, and Were
more than ridiculous in their apparel:
Now a Dandy' s a thing, Cieserthe him who can
That is very anueliznade in the shape of a man
But if but for once could the fathion prevail
He'd be more like an Ape if he lead but a tail.'
The dandy of 1816-24 was; ingact, the
old macaroni depicted in the Louden
Magazine for April„ 1772. The d • of
1816 led to several other applications et t
•
word, such as " dandigette ' and "den • y -
horse," or- velocipede. Of this leapt Bee
says (1823) ; "Hundreds of such might be
seen in a day: The rage oeased 18 about.
three years, and the word is becoming
obsolete." The word a Alandy " has.
certainly not become- obsolete, but after
1825 its meaning gradually • changed. It
00/68ad tO mean a Mtn ridiculous and oon-
temptible by his effeminate eocentricitiea,.
came to be applied -to those who were trim
neat and careful in dressing according to,
the fashion of the day. • •
